Kristina Khorram's legal team is painting her as a loyal employee with zero knowledge of—or involvement in—any alleged sex trafficking operation. Her defense hinges on the complete absence of concrete evidence linking her to Diddy's alleged misconduct.
The Ghislaine Maxwell comparison is DEVASTATING for Kristina, and she knows it. Sources say she's furious about being lumped in with someone convicted of sex trafficking minors. This isn't just a legal battle—it's her reputation on the line.
Phillip Pines worked for Diddy from 2019 to 2021 and claims he set up hotel rooms for alleged 'freakoffs' equipped with red lights, baby oil, towels, and sex devices. Kristina's court filing states the only alleged connection is her telling Pines not to discuss an incident where Combs allegedly kicked someone.
Kristina Khorram wants this lawsuit thrown out—and honestly? She might have a fighting chance if the evidence against her really does boil down to one conversation about keeping quiet. But let's be real: being named in a sex trafficking suit alongside Diddy is already its own kind of damage, Maxwell comparison or not.
Kristina Khorram, Sean 'Diddy' Combs' longtime chief of staff and assistant, has officially had enough. In court documents obtained by Celebrity Bytes, she's torching the lawsuit brought against her by former Diddy employee Phillip Pines—and making one thing crystal clear: she is NOT Ghislaine Maxwell. Pines sued both Diddy AND Kristina back in June 2026, alleging sexual battery, sexual harassment, and sex trafficking.
He claims he worked for the disgraced mogul from 2019 to 2021, where his duties allegedly included setting up hotel rooms for what insiders reportedly called "freakoffs"—complete with red lights, baby oil, towels, and various sex devices. According to Pines, he was also responsible for cleaning up the aftermath of these alleged gatherings. But here's where Kristina draws her line in the sand: another accuser previously compared her to Ghislaine Maxwell—the infamous associate of Jeffrey Epstein who was convicted of sex trafficking minors.
In her response filing, Kristina is slamming that comparison as baseless and demanding it stop. She argues that Phillip Pines has presented zero proof she knowingly participated in or benefited from any alleged sex trafficking venture. So what DOES the lawsuit actually claim she did?
According to Kristina's legal team, the entirety of their client's alleged involvement amounts to ONE conversation where she supposedly told Pines not to speak about an incident involving Combs kicking someone. That's it. No forced participation in freakoffs, no recruitment of victims, nothing concrete—just a single directive to stay quiet.
Her attorneys are arguing this is nowhere near enough evidence to keep her in the lawsuit and are pushing for dismissal. Diddy's legal team has maintained their client is innocent across all lawsuits filed against him. In a statement to TMZ, they declared that "no matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won't change the fact that Mr.
Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex trafficked anyone—man or woman, adult or minor." They emphasized confidence in the judicial process and expected to prevail in court. For Kristina Khorram, though, this fight isn't just about legal victory—it's about salvaging her reputation from a Maxwell comparison that no PR team could spin as flattering. Whether she succeeds depends entirely on what other evidence Pines might have tucked away. The case continues.
